Lip Spoiler search help

Ive searched around for a couple days now and i cant find what im looking for. Im almost postive that i have seen it on AZ, but what im looking for is the post where someone has the Deck Lid Lip spoiler installed above the rear window acting as a second spoiler to the larger one. If anyone could help me out here it would be great, thanks.

He was only making a joke about mounting it on top

NOTE: I didn't take a pic from the inside because you can't see the spoiler at all. the black coating on the outer frame of the rear windshield covers it. if you know what i'm talking about. It's solid black then it fades to black dots on the frame.

here are some random pics

Nice Ride.. how do you get away without the front plates, I feel like I get canned instantly all the time. Looks much better without the front plate and 'ACURA' colored in.

side note: i didn't buy that spoiler for the sole purpose of putting it on the rear windshield.. i actually needed a deck lid spoiler (on trunk) and so i opted for that.. after the '07 Type-S spoiler was on a groupbuy on hondacuraworld.com for $90, i knew i had to get it so I actually took off that aftermarket spoiler and threw it in the garbage room in my dorm.. it suddenly occured to me days later that I could put a 2nd spoiler on the top of the rear windshield (seeing some of the members here doing it) and quickly ran back to the garbage room and to my surprise it was still there. i had to take off all the goo that was on the spoiler from the trunk but once i got it all off, i put it straight on my rear windshield. turned out great. definitely adds a new look

BforBrian how did the aftermarket spoiler fit on the deck lid. I was thinking about getting it for the trunk but i'm afraid of fitment issues. Also what did you use to color the "Acura" up front? Thanks

the aftermarket lip isn't as long and doesn't wrap around the contours of the tip of the trunk as well.. but it did the job. it's around 1 cm off from the left and right but it's not that bad. i don't have close close-ups but i have far shots. i hope these help

this is back when i tinted my tail lights

Thanks for the pics.. hey for 70 bucks painted you can't go wrong. Did it stay on the trunk well or did the sides start to lift up?

whitediamond: i'm pretty positive it'll fit the '07. they didn't "widen" the car at all so it'll fit just the way it fits on mine.

nope, fits just fine.
3M double sided molding tape is seriously strong stuff.

Thanks for the info Brian, I'm definitely gonna pick this up. Beats paying the dealer 400 plus having to drill it into the trunk. Thanks again , Joe

The color match is perfect for my WDP too, i was expecting it to be a little off but it was spot on.
Good cheap spoiler, and comes with the 3M tape already on it.

This isnt the OEM Lip spoiler. Although it looks the same, it does not wrap around the back of the deck lid. This spoiler takes 2min to instal with the supplied 3M double sided tape.


Pics of it on my car after dinner....looks slick.
